252 Falling Genealogy (IV)

Then, all ten years went by.

Zazz-Sung fell ill, Miggy-Sung decayed into the woods - so the seat of the chief was taken over by Zulo-Sung, and the Sung family followed a path of decadence.

But not even Zazz-Sung's obsession was fogged.

His hair fell out, his body and his fruit full of bones and skins, and he grabbed all the Contraindicated Leaves, and yet the flames of obsession never went out of Zazz-Sung's eyes.

"Build strength... build strength... until one day this disease of mine heals..."

Sung's settlement continues to be tied to the established code of Zazz-Sung.

Only recently did the chief's seat move to Zulo-Sung, and no change came to Sung's settlement.

In the meantime, the sons of the book were growing up accordingly.

Yamil-Sung became a daughter laughing like a viper.

Diga-Sung became a young man like a lump of vanity.

Dodd-Sung became a weak man who couldn't do anything without drinking.

Mida-Sung seemed only interested in eating.

Zwei-Sung seemed to believe that earning copper coins meant human life.

And Zulo-Sung, who succeeded the chief, left his fragile temper intact, and all his stand-up behavior became dignified - Oura and those in the branch had everyone's eyes like vitreous balls.

As long as we lived in Sung's settlement, there was no escape from Zaz-Sun's rule.

In addition, the Sung family never gained strength behind Zazz-Sung's wishes.

As if fleeing Zah-Sung's obsession, those who gained illness young did not cease to follow.

Within the beginning, the suspicion arose that Morga's grace was poisonous.

Later, it was whispered that because of the small number of givahs, it was caused by eating even their guts.

But eventually everyone was no longer concerned about anything.

If that is the judgment of the woods, just obey - silently, maybe he had such thoughts.

Whatever it was, it was also thought that there were other causes, because the people in the main house who were eating the same things were living extremely healthy except for Zazz-Sung.

In short, I guess those who have lost the power to wish to live are just sprinkling their lives in turn, Tay-Sung thinks so.

The number of men who had sinned along with Tay-Sung was also decreasing, one by one, and by the time ten years had passed, no one had been there.

This does not make it possible to attack the countryside or the Chamber of Commerce.

The wealth we had accumulated by then was also gradually diminished to buy alcohol and meat.

So the Sung family rolled down the path of decadence and obsolescence.

And it came to pass on the night of doom.

◇

"You will live in this land today."

Dick-Dom said so.

This was Dom's settlement, which he ruled.

Instead of Tay-Sung, there are the figures of Diga-Sung and Dodd-Sung.

No - Mr. Sung had already been taken.

Tay, Digga, and Dodd.

Tay was standing in front of Dom's parents while his arms and legs were tied with leather bands.

"As a hunter by the woods, hunt Gibba. Only living right will make amends for you."

While he was young to be seventeen years from now, Dick-Dom seemed already equipped with style and power as a parent.

Digga and Dodd are trembling, caught in the eyes like those black fires.

Sung's house is doomed.

There were still more than half of the divided humans left in the settlement, but at least, the Sung family as the chieftaincy muscle perished.

The man in the main house was deprived of Mr., the man in the branch with blood fringes in the other families became your family, and Zazz-Sung and Zulo-Sung were to be tried as sinners.

After reaching Genos, they said they would be skinned off their heads.

The sins of the Sung family are redeemed by the lives of Zazz-Sung and Zulo-Sung.

Others were commanded only to "live righteously".

"Starting tomorrow, I'm going to have you do your job as a hunter. At the end of the day, when you can regain your pride as the people of the woods, I promise to give you Mr. Dom."

That's how the Tays were to be put to sleep at Dom's branch house with their hands and feet tied together.

In a small room, three people get stuffed together. Outside the door, I'm sure the men will take turns watching.

Digga and Dodd still seemed dazed inside the moonlight plugging room.

Nor did Tay himself fully understand the circumstances surrounding him.

Sung's house has been destroyed.

No matter how powerless, Sung's house, which was never crushed, all over Zazz-Sung's resentment, overnight, lightly.

Of course, it wasn't like I didn't have a feeling that such a day would come.

At the time Zazz-Sung fell ill and lost Miggy-Sung, the Sung family had no choice but to perish.

Unless those who succeeded Zazz-Sung's will appeared, there was no way for the Sung family to live forever.

Fourteen years have already elapsed since they began to raze the Morga Forest - for all that time, in order to keep secrets, the Sung family had forbidden son-in-law or daughter-in-law to be sent to their families. If it stayed that way, they would have bought the suspicions of their families and either abandoned them or exposed their secrets.

But without waiting for it, Sung's house was doomed.

Destroyed are the houses of Lew and Fa.

Rather, Lew's house only added strength to it, and it was Fa's house, which had only two families, that was to destroy Sung's house.

(But...... is that really true?

The house of Fa certainly had just the power to destroy the Sung family.

But it was Yamir who brought it to Sung's settlement.

Maybe - isn't Yamir the one who destroyed the Sung family?

Isn't it not Yamir who brought doom to the Sung family, taking advantage of Zuro-Sung's desire to turn the wealth of Fa's house into ours, using shallow thought-out digas and dodds?

(Even so, nothing's wrong)

From an early age, Zazz-Sung caught his eye, and Miggy-Sung was stuffed with his daughter-in-law, and Yamir was to be held by the Sung family obsession.

As for Yamir, I guess there was only one way to become the receptacle to that obsession and reign over the Sung family, or destroy the Sung family.

Otherwise, it didn't seem like that Yamir would have dug the graves at all.

(The people of Fa's house are looking to exchange Gibba's meat for copper coins to bring abundance to the woodland... Zazz-Sun tried to gain strength by trampling numerous contraindications, but those people are trying to gain it while living rightly as the people of the woodland)

In such a far-fetched way, we do not know how many years we will get results.

But the Sung family, over the course of fourteen years, were unable to achieve anything.

What did Sung's house gain while devouring Morga's grace, abandoning his work as a hunter, and murdering his euthanasia raw?

It only created a people who had no pride as a people by the woods.

Freed from the threat of Giva, there has not been much increase in the number of blood clans, as more people have lost the energy to live and lose their lives.

If the prospects of the people of Fa's house are successful, there may be fewer people who starve and die, and the people by the woods may be able to show pride as hunters with more power than ever before.

Fa's house was just enough power to destroy the Sung family.

(but...... is that possible)

Growling in the dark room, I think blurry.

A meal from Fa's house, served at the Parents' Conference last night - which Tay was also to mouth at Sung's main house.

It is an incredible dish, made by the meat of Giva, free from stench, and the flat baked poiton, not the juice.

It was the ladies of Sung's division, handmade by the Astas of Fa's house.

That was, indeed, a dish to my surprise.

But the Sung humans know the taste of meat sold in the Inn Town.

Especially those in the main house, the meat of the badly smelled giva was often pressed into the house to eat, for example, carons and Kimmus meat.

The dishes Asta told the Sung ladies also felt delicious enough to surpass them - can that really move the hearts and minds of the people in the lodging town?

Tay didn't know.

Only one thing was certain: Sung's house was destroyed.

◇

Starting the next day, Dick-Dom was to be forced to do the giva hunting job as declared.

Unbind the belt, give the hunter his clothes, and the sword.

Digga and Dodd had turned into a dead man's complexion.

These two have never done a proper giva hunting job.

"Still, I guess you've probably caught Gibba in a trap before, huh? I'll have that job done first."

Dom had seven hunters.

Less people than I thought.

Wearing Gibba's skull deep, everyone had a fine physique, but no one feels very old.

I'm sure there's a frightening amount of giva lurking in this northern settlement, just like Sung once did.

So before men are old, they all decay into the woods.

They still survive the harsh raw which the sons of Sung have cast down.

Okay, let's go.

Step into the woods under Dick-Dom's decree.

I stepped in and was soon to split into two hands.

Four to act with the Tays and the other three.

Dick-Dom was in the same group as the Tays.

When the Tays try to escape, I guess Dick-Dom will sift the blade of Solemn Qing.

Dick-Dom's majestic flesh was filled with life force no less than Miggy-Sung once did.

(To Luu's parents, to Lutim's parents, to this Dick-Dom, to Graf-Zaza...... and outside Sung's settlement, such as Fa's female hunter and Luu's youngest brother, so many powerful hunters grew up)

This can't be fat enough for the Sung family.

After all, the Sung family has been doomed for ten years.

Zazz-Sung got sick and was to lose Miggy-Sung, since that year.

(If so... is it like not only Yamir, but I also took part in the doom of the Sung family...)

Going down the roadless path with such a thing in mind, Dick-Dom eventually sent a silent signal to stop it.

Digga and Dodd look around frightened.

At that moment - extremely abruptly, Gibba jumped out of the woods.

I guess it's a giva hungry for hunger. Burning both eyes into anger, he loses me and progresses toward the Tays.

"Hiya!

Screaming, Digga nods.

Jumping over that back, Tay shook his knife down.

A steel blade spills deep into Gibba's neck.

But Tae doesn't have the strength to bury Gibba in one blow.

Tay twisted his body to the left as he tried to keep the knife from being bounced.

Gibba slips through Tay's throat as she sprinkles red blood.

At that destination was the figure of Dick-Dom.

Dick-Dom waves the knife down while avoiding its rampage.

From the opposite side of Tae's slaughter, his torso severed his neck muscle.

Did the shock break my neck bone? More and more, Gibba fell and lay in the bush.

The three hunters jump instantly and wave down the slaughter of the stomach.

"... it must have been quite a stunning outfit"

Dick-Dom has called it that way, shaking off the blood of a knife.

"Tay, you and I haven't served as hunters in years, have we?

"Yes."

"Besides, I hear you're already over fifty. Given that, isn't it an impeccable power as a hunter"

With this said, I couldn't find any words to answer.

Zazz-Sung said training should not be neglected in preparation for the day to come. Tay was only following that order with stupidity.

"You might be able to walk the right life as a hunter again."

Dick-Dom moves his gaze as he says in a hard to read voice of emotion.

Digga was nodding to the ground with her head in her arms, and Dodd was stunned.

It's like - as a toddler who was hit with a stick by Miggy-Sung.

"I don't like it anymore... I can't do hunters! Please, give me a break!

"What are you talking about? So you want to be skinned off your head as a sinner?

Instead, when Dick-Dom inquires, Digga shrinks so much as "hiya".

"Dick-Dom, Digga and Dodd were obeyed by the Sung family code from an early age. Some of them didn't originally grow up proud to be hunters."

Dick-Dom looks back at Tay quietly.

"Yeah, that's why I can't leave the house to work like a bunch of women."

"That would be so. But if you're going to train them as hunters like that, it's going to take as much patience as it takes to train people in town."

"The hunter of the town... it's going to be a hell of a trial for us too."

Dick-Dom takes a deep breath before glowing his black eyes hard.

"But I guess that will be the punishment for us for failing to discern your sins.... Hey, it's Digga."

Needless to say, Dick-Dom gently caused that body by grabbing Diga's collar.

Pull your own face in front of Digga's eyes trying to distract her.

"Look me in the eye and answer.... Are you afraid of Giva?

"Hih, hih!

"Answer. Are you afraid of Giva?

"Oh... horrible..."

"A man who is thirteen years old first learns about the horrors of Giva in that body. You've just taken your first step as a hunter."

Dick-Dom went on like that, burning both eyes like a black fire.

It had the same shade of eyes as Zazz-Sung, and the same intense eyesight, yet its nature seemed entirely alike.

"I also went into the woods for the first time, and when I was reminded of the horror, I couldn't stop trembling. And that was only four years ago. With you, as long as it takes, we can build on you as hunters."

…………

"Live strong and atone for your sins. If you don't forget that feeling, we won't abandon you."

Dick-Dom pushes Digga's body away.

Digga collapsed, nagging as it was.

"To avoid Mundt eating you to the fur, the hunted giva will be left hanging on the tree once on this occasion. Do the job first."

…………

"Didn't you hear what I said?

Digga and Dodd stand cursory with a blue face.

Since he saw it through, Dick-Dom has looked back at Tay.

"You too, Tay. Do you know how to hang a rope? Tell these people that."

"Yes."

Or - if you're the parent of this young and fierce Dom, maybe you can get Diga and Dodd on the right track.

With that in mind, Tay proceeded to walk with his former blood family to Gibba.

◇

(What should I do...?

That night, I couldn't sleep very well.

An expensive job as a hunter on crackles and confusion about a drastically changed environment may have shaken the feelings of the servant Tay as well.

Digga and Dodd, sleeping like mud.

After that, I didn't get sudden raids, and I was able to finish the job only at the beginning and end of the giva that hung in the trap. Still, I guess it was a big job for Diga and Dodd to use up all their energy.

They were also trained according to Zazz-Sung's instructions, but they never went out into the woods properly. He had just watched Tae and Mida finish off the trapped Gibba with a chill of half.

I don't grow a soul as a hunter just by gaining training in tree climbing and force comparison.

For the first time, they knew the horrors of the forest.

After learning about the horror, it is difficult for a man to gain pride as a hunter and awe of the forest for the first time.

We are only a part of the forest again - it is important to know it not with knowledge, but with it.

Dick-Dom might be able to guide them right.

But...

What should I do?

(As a people by the woods, I will live righteously again - do I have such credentials?

Tay's hands are dirty with innocent human blood.

Those who know that fact no longer only exist in Zazz-Sung.

If even Zazz-Sung is now convicted - Tay will live alone with the secret.

(Where my sins have been revealed, there will be no more tiredness to Aura or the Zweis. because we have already been cut off, and even if not, the Ouras have not been informed of anything from the beginning)

Then you should confess.

How many sins you and Zazz-Sung have committed in the last decade or so.

That way, Tae should have a solemn blade down as well.

The Sung family has perished, so the end of the forest can only be entrusted to a new chiefdom.

If Luu, Sauti and Zaza were chosen as new chieftaincy muscles, they would be able to stand up to the nobles of Genos in their own way.

If their power does not extend, the people of the woods will soon perish - it is also the will of the woods. Tay has nothing to do with it.

(but...) and Tay saw his palm watermarked in the darkness.

Cracked in retreat, an old hand.

In that hand, I still have the feeling that I slapped and slashed Giva.

Instead of putting a hold on the suspended giva, he waved his knife down at the giva, who came swinging his fangs and horns. How many years has this been my first occupation?

Gibba and a part of the forest.

The people by the woods do not have it together, such as the feeling of hating Gibba.

It is better to hit your power and win to get the raw of the day. If you decay into the forest without strength, you will return your soul. That is all that was said, and say, Gibba and the people of the woods were equally the sons of the Mother Forest.

Tae had clearly remembered Daw Young and her movements that hit her life.

If I could live to the best of my ability while doing my job as a hunter in that way - how happy that would be.

If I could have lived such a life with Diga and Dodd while giving my thoughts to my once distant family...

(But it's unacceptable to live a life of peace like that)

Before a deeper desire to loosen his soul, Tay drinks down the thought.

If Zazz-Sung is tried, I will confess myself that day.

There are no permissible qualifications for me.

At that time...

Tay's spine squeezed into the sensation of incompetence.

I don't know what this is. Soon I'll hear the women screaming.

"Fire - Dom's settlement is burning!

Tae rose cursorily.

At the same time, the doorboard can be roughly pulled open from the outside.

"What are you sleeping swallowing! You guys are still woodland guys!?

It was Dom's eldest sister, Rem-Dom, who showed up from there.

Lem-Dom, with a long, robust body, steps in with a knife in one hand. At that sign, Diga and Dodd finally seemed to wake up, too.

"Hey, what!? I knew you were going to execute us!?

"Do something stupid...... just give me your arm! If you want to burn to death like this, you can do whatever you want!

Whispering, Lem-Dom stopped by Tay.

The knife in his hand first severs the leatherstring that was attached to the pillar, and then even severs the band of his hands and feet.

"There's a fire coming out of all five houses! Now that we're trying to get Zaza and Gene, you guys need to help!

I don't know why, but I'm leaving the room with the Diggas.

Really, the smell of things burning came into my nose.

"Wow... what the hell...?

When I left the house, the settlement was burning exactly.

The world is dyed red.

And the darkness of the night and black smoke were swirling black as they competed for the reign.

"Are you guys all right! No more loose ends to draw water! Break the house before the fire moves into the woods!

Dick-Dom was yelling across the black smoke.

Lem-Dom kicks Digga's ass in the face.

"Leave that to the parents, you guys are this way! We're gonna smash the house down with Marutai or something!

"Oh, oh..."

Digga steps out of the way.

The leg stopped perfectly around the third step.

"What are you doing! If it's blurry, there's fire in the woods!"

The deflected Lem-Dom also holds his mouth.

Beyond black smoke stood a shadow darker than smoke.

"I've searched, Tay-Sung... and Diga and Dodd..."

It was an unusually lean shadow.

It's like a human bone moved around a black raw skin - such a difference.

Digga and Dodd, as well as even Rem-Dom, had their souls flying over their differences.

But Tay was convinced.

(Yes... this is still my destiny...)

Half unconscious, move on.

Skinny on all the bones and skins, pitch-black shadows.

In it, above all, dark eyes look at themselves with joy.

"Come and restore order to the woods with me... and I will reward the nobles of Genos and the families of Luu with what they deserve..."

Zazz-Sung, holding a machete in his skinny arm like a dead branch, said so with a skull-like face all over the blood of his compatriots, burning his rotten eyes.
